A Question to Ponder

 

A shoulder to cry or a friend to celebrate
Can value be decided based on the need?
Sorrow, happiness, which burden is more irate?
A question to ponder with careful heed

The only constant is the change
Happiness will pass and so will sorrow
A shoulder to a friend is the range
One is a greater burden to borrow

Sorrow no one is afraid to pass
Sorrow creates one that is content
Happiness no one is going to pass
Happiness results in lack of intent

Happiness is burden that is the argument
The more you have the heavier it gets
The need it creates one can’t augment
The unending vicious cycle that it begets

Expect no constant, change with the change
Sorrow, happiness nothing can do damage
Happiness is burden that creates carnage
Only if you expect it to stick but not assuage
